MCPHERSON COUNTY

INMAN — The Moundridge boys made a furious comeback in the third quarter after trailing 28-20 at halftime, but couldn’t hold on, falling 60-56 to McPherson County rival Inman Friday night.

The Teutons had jumped out to a 12-6 lead after the first quarter and then out-scored the Wildcats 16-14 in the second for the halftime lead.

Moundridge, however roared back with a 24-9 third quarter. The Wildcats were sparked by Hunter Enyart, who had 12 of his game high 21 points in the third frame.

Inman fired back in the fourth, however, scoring 23 points, thanks, in part, to the efforts of Josh Miller, who nine points in the quarter, seven of which came from the foul line, where he went 7-of-8 to boost the Teutons to the four point win.

Miller and Alex Ropp both finished with 16 points for Inman. Justin Friesen added 12 in the win.

Enyart was the only Wildcat in double figures, as the usually high-scoring Daniel Ratzlaff was held to only six points, those not coming until the second half.

Solomon 71

Elyria Christian 39

ELYRIA — The Elryia boys dropped a Wheat State League game to Solomon Friday night, losing 71-39.

The Gorillas jumped out to a 20-7 lead after the first quarter and 42-16 at the intermission.

Elyria came out with more fire in the second half, managing to stay even with Solomon in the third quarter, matching them 18-18. The Eagles held the scoring advantage in the fourth quarter, 15-11, but the first half deficit proved too much to overcome.

Ethan Price led Elryia with 12 points, while Josh Nichols and Daniel Froese both added eight.
